lfcrule1972 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Looks like I might be in for a windfall NOT !!!!! Dear Friend, I have not considered this medium to be the best manner to have approached you on this issue being that the internet has been greatly abused over the recent years and is very unsecured for informations of vital importance. I have decided to take the chance seeing that no other means could have been faster and more efficient than the E-mail. The name is Mr. Henry Coleman and I am the director of foreign operations of my Bank. I have been incharge of this department for six years and to best of my knowleage have discharge my duty with equity. I had a foreign client who is deceased as at this time, but have assets still unclaimed with the bank. In the process of review of the financial report by my department, I discovered that both of you have a similar last name, hence I contacted you so that I can give you further briefing on my intention and how to disburse the estate he left behind. I will most welcome your prompt response as that would enable us to start something immediately. Sincerely, Henry Coleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamus_McFartfinger Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 These junk emails must work as they've been around as long as I can remember. What hasn't changed with them is the senders still can't write correctly. The name is Mr. Henry Coleman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbminter Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 This bank must be in Nigeria. I like where it says: In the process of review of the financial report by my department, I discovered that both of you have a similar last name BOTH of YOU?! You not only have a foreign relative, but, you're schizophrenic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
